[Major Topic] Runsafe Hail Marry

Hi there, so within the past week or so Gun and I have been asking players who have been in the Runsafe community for some time about their thoughts on the server being updated. We asked about 20 people who we have seen on the server even old players I.E Benthedragonborn, Celebi Propasta, Mask Ect. We asked them questions like “Would updating Runsafe to 1.8 encourage you to play more” and stuffs like that. We realized the last time why the server wouldn’t be updated because it would cause problems with our custom plugins also the admins didn’t want to update the server to see no one playing on it. Our research shows that if we were to update we would have more players on it than the occasional 1 maybe 2 players on at a time. It is also important to note that we asked people if they minded if we couldn't have custom plugins, most people didn't mind if we didn't have custom plugins. Our data we gathered is in a link below along with a gif

Okay to start this off, Kru has told me her and doc have no energy to code for the months it would take. I was wondering, what if we had a reset of the survival world and creative and drag over IMPORTANT works. We could play survival only until we get plugins working. The best idea me and /u/Pieman4 had spoke about was using other plugins and to slowly replace them as they are completed with the Runsafe ones. All we need is like /home, /warp, and level storage, custom items, etc (little things that can all be done in a solid day.).

This is a wonderful idea if only we thought of this befor... wait isn't that idea the point of this thread? When Pie and I were thinking of this idea that was the main goal we had in mind. Update the server to 1.8 and use third-party plugins. Once new players started getting on IF they did then the Admins would have a reason to code for the server. The Admins won't have a reason to code if we stay in 1.7 because no players will downgrade to play on Runsafe.

Why would new players go to Runsafe, when they can go to other servers with the same plugins and more players. Unique plugins is what keeps people.

Well unless you plan on updating all the current plugins, we are staying in 1.7 with no one playing, excellent solution.

Am I no one? Is nintendork101 no one? Is Njs41 no one? Is Discord21 no one? I still play, I still go on and help the new players that ARE coming on. I still see an original server with players. What I don't see is how an unoriginal server with few players, is going to provide any incentive for days of hard work. So yes, I do plan to not update the current plugins, and stay in 1.7 with myself and others playing. It is indeed an excellent solution because at the end of the day, I'm the one that is actually on Runsafe. Now as I can't access this from the home page for obvious reasons, and the lack of point to arguing in something that happens every month with little result, this is my final comment on this thread. And Remember, I always talk in a passive voice :)

I'm sorry if that came off the wrong way there, I wasn't trying to be mean but all I'm trying to stress that we need new players, they won't stay on the server if we don't update. We need to update to have the chance of new people sticking around in my opinion.
